Flip Flyer Build

To replace the recently lost Power Patrol my youngest chose the Flip Flyer. I turned it into a money learning experience and had him put $2 towards the purchase. He brought is wallet (which is actually a small metal piggy bank) and he handed the cashier the coins with the understanding that he would get the rocket in exchange for the money.

This was a quick and easy build. Just had to be careful with the glue on the pins that allow the blades to pivot. I think this will be a fun rocket for him to launch.

I did notice that the parachute my catch on the coupler during ejection but I think that clever wadding placement will handle that issue.
